Blaser: I don't disagree with that. We've cleaned the ditch twice. The engineer has told me that what is there is adequate to carry the waterJ and given when it gets plugged that's where the problem arises. Kingsford: The tiling by each particular property owner, is that a grade to where it will handle that water in your estimation? Has that been checked into? Blaser: lIve never checked it. Kingsford: I feel that is part of the problem, the plat was approved as an open ditch. Any other comments from the Council? Giesler: I'd just like to comment that that has had a flow that was adequate for a number of years. This problem has arisen since that project was put in so I feel it's up to us to see that it is remedied. Welve tried contacting you and don't get our calls returned and before we do anything else this problem has got to be taken care of! Kingsford: Agree with Giesler's comments. It would be my recommendation that we table this or we approve it conditioned on this problem being taken care of before it is signed off. DISCUSSION HELD. (TAPE ON FILE) Kingsford: Is the City Engineer technically satisfied with everything but this? Eng. Smith: I have reviewed #6 but not #5 yet on the development plans. Kingsford: Counselor have yuu reviewed the covenants? Crookston: I haven't had a chance to review them. I have reviewed the covenants for #5 but not #6. If you want to approve them conditioned upon my approval that would be satisfactory. MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL JULY 16, 1991 PAGE #2 Giesler: What about the fence, did we get that resolved? Blaser: If it's a part of the plat and you require that I do it I'll put it in. The Motion was made by Yerrington and seconded by Tolsma to approve Final Plat on Chateau Med. #5&6 conditioned upon approval of the covenants, the water problem taken care of and Gary's approval of the development plans and the fence being built. Motion Carried: All Yea: ITEM #3: PUBLIC HEARING: PRELIMINARY PLAT OF MERRYW:XlD SUBDIVISION: Kingsford: At this time I will open the Public Hearing and invite the developer up to speak. John Matzinger, 319S Falling Brook Lane} Boise, was sworn by the attorney. Matzinger: I am with Toothman-orton Engineering in Boise. Have been working closely with City Engineer and have complied with all of the requests. Giesler: Have you seen the recommendations from Ada County Highway District? Matzinger: Yes we have. Giesler: Has there been any change in that street alignment across from that home they were concerned about the lights shining into their home in the evening? Matzinger: We presented a written response to that. We will use the tree groves to make an attractive entrance. Our suggestion to the Highway District is that if this really does become a problem that possibly something could be done on the other side of the road through a small burro with dense bushes and so forth. Tolsma: It's not directly across it's just a little bit more west. Also received another letter from a homeowner on Franklin that he would like to make it known in your covenants over there that the railroad tracks and anything south of the tracks is all industrial area. We have had some noise problems in an industrial area down- twn here. Also that is a transportation corridor where the railroad tracks are and is future development and he would like to make that known. Matzinger: suggestion. If the Council see's fit I'm sure Mrs. Arnold would entertain that Explained plans for a small burm. Kingsford: Anyone else to offer testimony on this issue? Hearing none I will close the Public Hearing. The Motion was made by Giesler and seconded by Tolsma to approve the preliminary plat for Merrywood Subdivision.

Greg Johnson, 5137 N. Leather Place} Boise} was sworn by the attorney. Johnson: I have just one question for Jack. I had thought that we had requested that this be final. Clerk Niemann: It is. Tolsma: Have you seen the Engineer's comments on here and they have all been taken care of. Johnson: Yes, I believe so. On the Jackson stub drain, have we had any problems on Gem Park with that 24" pipe? Eng. Smith: Not that I know of. Kingsford: The other question that I had is if you made contact with the other people out there that own the additional five acres there? Johnson: Yes. Kingsford: They did not want to be. Johnson: They did but they got back to me so late by the time I got to Jack with the request we didn't have time to give the Public Notice. It is my understanding that they intend to go ahead with that, he would like to develop it himself. The only thing I have to do with this parcel is get the water over to the school, they are the only ones using that irrigation system that is there. Kingsford: Anyone else who wishes to testify?

The City of Meridian has agreed to install new lights on this project and had planned to do a lease on the lights over a ten day period but due to the revenue from the above sources being available it would be in the best interests of the City t out right purchase the lights.
